Summary
- A few players may have made mistakes in Acheron’s build, affecting her performance in Honkai: Star Rail.
- A new rumored 4-star Light Cone could enhance Acheron’s offensive capabilities significantly.
- Good Night and Sleep Well may have competition as a top 4-star weapon substitute for Acheron in Honkai: Star Rail 2.2.
Several players have already messed up Acheron’s build, according to new Honkai: Star Rail 2.2 leaks, though that is not entirely their fault. Acheron is one of the new 5-star characters in Honkai: Star Rail 2.1. The so-called Galaxy Ranger is a Lightning Nihility character that deals raw damage to opponents rather than relying on DoT (damage over time) effects like most units on the Path of the Nihility. This unusual DPS character is built around high ATK and CRIT stats and dispenses Energy Regeneration altogether.
Despite having very straightforward requirements, many players have likely already made mistakes in Acheron’s build in Honkai: Star Rail. According to new information obtained by the leaker known as HomDGCat, which was shared and tagged as “Reliable” on Reddit, a series of new Light Cones will be added with Version 2.2. One of the rumored items is perfect for Acheron. The Nihility Light Cone is allegedly called Boundless Choreo, and its description seems to fit Acheron’s needs, pushing her offensive capabilities forward and rivaling her current best 4-star Light Cone substitute.
Honkai: Star Rail – Acheron Character Ascension (& Materials)
If you intend on obtaining Acheron in Honkai: Star Rail, you should consider farming her Ascension and Trace materials as soon as possible.
New Rumored Light Cone In Honkai: Star Rail 2.2 May Be Acheron’s Best 4-Star
According to the leak provided by HomDGCat, Boundless Choreo grants the user 8%/10%/12%/14%/16% more CRIT Rate and sees that they deal 24%/30%/36%/42%/48% more CRIT DMG to enemies that are DEF-reduced or Slowed. The increases to CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG are especially great for Acheron, as she is the Nihility character that will actually benefit from the bonuses. It also seems to hint at the ideal team comps for Acheron in Honkai: Star Rail, as she is always at her best when paired up with Pela, capable of applying DEF reduction on enemies.
The alleged bonuses of this rumored new 4-star Light Cone in Version 2.2 seem to rival the potential offered by Good Night and Sleep Well, Acheron’s current best 4-star weapon. The 4-star substitute to her signature 5-star Light Cone grants increased damage to debuffed opponents and, seeing that enemies will always be debuffed when fighting Acheron and her team, the damage increase should always be active. It is very likely Boundless Choreo and Good Night and Sleep Well will be matched at the position of best 4-star substitute for Acheron’s BiS (best-in-slot) in Honkai: Star Rail.
Like Good Night and Sleep Well, Boundless Choreo should not surpass the power of her signature Light Cone, Along the Passing Shore.
Those who do not have access to Along the Passing Shore, which may be difficult to obtain as it is a 5-star Light Cone locked behind a limited-time banner, may have messed up Acheron’s build. If they are not using Good Night and Sleep Well, they’ve already failed at unlocking her potential. If the leaks are true, Boundless Choreo should offer players a chance to get Acheron’s build right, as it may become one of her best 4-star Light Cones. Leaks should be taken cautiously, but this Honkai: Star Rail 2.2 leak shines hope for Acheron players.
